will probably need to take out loans

This is not a good combination. Medical school will be expensive. You have GREAT public universities in California. Any of the Universities of California will prepare you very well for medical school. You can also get the psychology and neuroscience related classes that you will want to take as an undergraduate student at the various Universities of California.

Your goal here is psychiatry, which requires medical school. You need to focus on being able to afford 8 full years of university without crippling yourself with debt. You really can get far enough into debt to make it impossible to finish your degree. There are doctors who are paying off loans quite far into their career. You do not need to do this.

I would not ED to a school that you know is going to cost you more than $85,000 per year unless you can afford this without loans. At a minimum I think that you should not apply ED, and thereby gain the opportunity to compare offers before you decide where to attend.

Otherwise I think that you are doing very well.
